Gram-positive rods. Motile. Produce subterminal, oval endospores in swollen
sporangia.
sporangia.
Colonies are circular, light yellow, convex and opaque with irregular edges on TSA
plates after 72 h incubation. Grows at 20-45 ºC (optimum growth at 37 ºC), at pH
6.0-10.0 (optimum pH 8.0) and at NaCl concentrations of 0-2% (optimum 0%). Strictly
aerobic.
